Seaton Parish Council is installing a defibrillator in the bright yellow cabinet on the front wall of the Seaton Village Hall on Thursday 18 August 2016. The cabinet will never be locked.

The defibrillator is simple, safe and easy to use. Once you open it, all you have to do is follow the spoken instructions.

But, we want to ensure as many Seatonians as possible feel confident in how to use it.

Ben Ryrie of East Midlands Ambulance Service will therefore be providing a demonstration about how to use the defibrillator in the Village Hall from 6.30pm - 8pm on Thursday 18 August 2016.

So, please come and find out how you can help save lives. And, remember, there are approximately 60,000 Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrests per year in the UK. About 80% of these occur at home; and, they affect people of all ages, including children.

When someone has a cardiac arrest, every minute without CPR and defibrillation reduces their chances of survival by 7-10%.

If a defibrillator is used and effective CPR is performed within 3-5 minutes of cardiac arrest, survival chances increase from 6% to 74%.

Please call Nic Greenfield on 747589 or email him at greenfield.nic@gmail.com to reserve your place.

Paris and District Councillors are holding a drop-in session to hear residents' views about this proposal. Copies of the plans will be available and a summary of issues raised will be sent by the Parish Council to Harborough District Council.

A brief placing of the plaque inside the phone box will be followed by a light sit-down pot luck buffet breakfast/brunch in the Village Hall.

It will be a happy occasion of remembering the wonderful person Charlotte was, and the lives she touched.
